Re: [encoding] Clarify scope of document in preface (#10)

If it's only for completeness and isn't intended to replace the definition then it should be included non-normatively and the normative defining reference should be clearly included. Clarifications or modifications made in this spec only should (obviously) be normative. 

If it _is_ intended to replace or modify the definition normatively then that rings big alarm bells. Specifying more precisely error handling does make sense but doesn't change the basic definition.
